Will bees with the old queen swarm before the capped queen cell hatches? I think I have rea this somewhere and I think it happened to me today. I had a football sized swarm go up a tree today and when I went into that hive I found about 1/2-2/3 of the bees there but 4 capped queen cells. None had been hatched. So I left the 2 biggest but cut out 2 small ones. Thanks Clark
